The char grilled oysters were rich and flavorful, and the tuna steak was cooked perfectly. The only downside was the wait. Service was friendly, but it took quite a while for our food to arrive, even though the restaurant wasn't overly busy during our 8:30 PM reservation. If the kitchen timing improved, this would easily be a five-star experience. Overall, the outstanding food made up for the delay, and I would definitely return--just with a little extra patience.

Service and ambiance are great and as expected. Had the…read moreduck gumbo which was dark and elevated vs regular gumbo. The shrinp poor boy was good also but bread needs to be toasted more. The rice and beans were good but luke warm so took away from the experience The highlight for me was the ettoufee. It was the best I had in a very long time. Creamy and decadent. But again not hot enough. So overall could've been a 10 but with food not hot it was an 8.5

We got the gulf crab fingers appetizer, which are perfectly fried and come with a remoulade with a little kick of spice. The seafood gumbo is incredible and definitely some of the best gumbo you could get. I love that they work with other local artists and small businesses in the area and even have a list of their local sourcing and vendors in the area. Service is fast and friendly and the prices are great!

We tried a few different bites, and everything was exactly what you want from a spot like this -- flavorful, fresh, and satisfying every single time. Food: The food is really the main attraction here. Nothing overly fancy or trying too hard, just consistently good food that delivers every time. Everything we tried was solid, and it's the kind of place where you already know you're leaving happy before you even order. Service: Service was smooth with no issues at all. The staff kept things moving, and the experience was easy from start to finish. Ambiance: Billy's has that classic Louisiana stop-through feel to it. Nothing extravagant, but it doesn't need to be. The food speaks for itself. Overall: Not much to rave about besides the food -- and honestly, that's all it needs. Billy's is officially one of my can't-miss stops anytime I'm driving through Lafayette. I'm never passing this place up.

I was super excited for this place because I haven't had boudin in so long. I got cracklins,…read moreBilly's Boudin and the smoked boudin. The cracklins had a little bit of fat and meat on them which I wasn't used to. I'm just used to the fried crispy skin. It tasted more like fried/seasoned pork belly. The seasoning is really good though. My favorite boudin was Billy's more than the smoked one but my fiance liked the smoked flavor more. I wish we took pics but we just ate it in the car. The casing was a little tough to bite through so I sliced it and scooped out the insides. Although the Billy's boudin is good, I don't know if it was good enough to drive from Texas for it. I need to search for more places while I'm here.

Ca c'est bon!!! I've been here twice, once while driving through and such a great experience, I…read morecame here again while staying in Lafayette. It was just as delicious as the first time! We had chicken and sausage gumbo, Pepper Jack boudin balls, bam bam gator bites and the blackened chicken pasta. The waiter this time was better than the waitress we had last time. He was very attentive and made sure we never had to ask for refills. The appetizers came out fairly normal time-wise I would say. The main portion took a little bit longer than what you're used to at a franchise restaurant but here that's perfectly fine as it's worth the couple extra minutes. The gumbo is perfect(I love when gumbo is not over complicated) I like to add a lil hot sauce to it and it's delicious... only thing is, while they already give generous portions... the cup and the bowl looked exactly the same except I think in the bowl they give you one extra scoop of rice... which would be just fine if it wasn't like $6 more. But still delicious nonetheless. The bam bam gator bites were really good and I highly recommend them. If you like bam bam shrimp you'll love these. The pepper jack boudin balls were good, nothing special but they were definitely worth the try. My co-worker had the blackened chicken pasta and when I asked him how it was he said "dude, it's really good!" lol. The building is pretty unique and they have some outside seating with a massive beautiful tree that over looks the restaurant and takes claim to some of the asphalt in the parking lot lol. But it's a great spot for birthdays, good lunch menu deals, casual date night or if you wanna blow some steam off, they have a little bar in the restaurant as well. Overall, I HIGHLY recommend. I'm from East Texas, so I'm no Cajun/Louisianan but they truly got some good grub here. I'll definitely be coming back several more times when I get the chances. I will warn you, I believe the food is freshly made so when it gets to the table, give it some time to cool off because it comes out HOT.

No greeting whatsoever! The young girl at the register truly did not want to be bothered by anyone who entered the restaurant. I would give her a zero! If you have to keep her, it would be best for your business to place her in the kitchen so no one has to interact with her. We were there on Friday, March 6. I have debated on giving a review. If this was my business, I would want to know how this employee treats those who enter the restaurant. Anyone, I mean anyone , could be better than her. A simple, "Hi, welcome to ...

The flavor was great! More than just the powdered seasoning, you could tell the boil was seasoned properly. It was late March when we came through and we had a few too many small crawfish but not worth complaining about. Also, they had no boudin which was disappointing but again, we came for the crawfish! Small space, friendly staff who insisted they would clean the table after we left.
